[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you all for your concern about teachers salaries! Indeed, it’s tremendously challenging to support your family in DC on a teacher’s salary. We all wish we could avoid taking second jobs to get by!

As you have learned during the pandemic, spending the day with your 1-3 children can be exhausting! I know you empathize with teachers spending their day with 25-30 children! And then going to a second job!

Here’s something you can do to help reduce teachers’ dependence on second jobs:  email the Chancellor and Mayor and demand an increase in teachers salary!  
Mayor Bowser eom@dc.gov
Chancellor Ferebee  lewis.ferebee@dc.gov

Until covid, teachers had been alone in their advocacy for a wage increase. Please know how much your children’s teachers appreciate your support![/quote]

DC has the highest paid public school teachers in the country. We have art teachers who make six figures. They make more than college professors.

I’d say the bigger problem is teachers wanting to continue to collect their full salaries even as they refuse to go to work.[/quote]
